I've been wearing 3 different pair of vintage uniqlo chinos for like 2 years now. They aren't going to last too much longer and I wear them frequently because I love the fit. Is it reasonable to take a pair to a tailor and have them copy it? I've never tried anything like that before. It would also give me access to more colors going this route.

I'm not a fan of the J. Crew alternative, their urban slim chino is very different from the vintage uniqlo fit. Brooks Bros don't go below size 30 and look too dressy, at least in their picture.

i like the fit, i would tear off the dickies logo though the dickies website makes the pants look bigger? i guess the model is a super skinny japanese guy i'm sure theyre stiff as hell, i'll buy a pair just to test out and give em a good wash to loosen them up btw heres two coupon codes for their website

just got these slim tapered dockers in the mail...pardon the wrinkles/creases they were packed shitty in the bag when UPS dropped em off used a 30% off friends and family coupon and they came out to 35.00 each (coupon expired already) heres the other color: theyre thick and the inseam is short (30") im 5'8" and i wear a 31(waist) in jcrew and got a 32(waist) in these and these fit slimmer than jcrew urban slim fit pants dockers site: http://us.dockers.com/product/index....entPage=family i think these are the same as the dockers on UO's website http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban...ULTS&color=031 but with much more color options measurements coming soon......

tonio028 & snuff_daddy Both of the pants fit you guys perfectly. Goes to show that it's not one cut fits all. That said, I think the quality of the Epaulet pants are great, as is the owner/designer, Mike.

Agreed, I had a chance to feel up a friend's pair of the rivet chinos. I just placed an order for mine, will see how the fit works.
